It has been WAY too long since I flashed some actual knitting around here, so may I introduce my most recent completed projects?
..awesome Noro socks, made from this pattern/guideline, completed in March.
..a dishcloth, made from this pattern in Sugar n Cream cotton. Just as a little backstory on this one, a friend at work taught me how to knit with the Continental method (I’m normally an English knitter). This cloth was the first thing I’ve knit Continental-ly! I really like it, but I don’t foresee it taking over as my main style anytime soon.
..a purse! I finally used my sewing machine to make something. It sews amazingly well. The pattern is free online here (watch out, it goes immediately to download). Hopefully I can get back to it and make something else useful soon. The PJ pants I attempted last weekend were a mega bust. I was really sad.
..a fabulous pair of socks made with the Hedgerow pattern and Perfect Day Yarns Ode to the Sea. LOVE!
..and some cute/EASY catnip mouse toys for my friend Renee’s kitties! :o) Pattern’s here.
I have obviously lost my blogging mojo for quite a while. I have some projects I really want to start/finish, so hopefully it will return soon!
Great projects!!
The little purse is cute! Sorry the pj’s didn’t work as well. : (
Karen Y and I were talking about you at the Insanknitty retreat this AM – were your ears burning?
